Purring

Purring
My pussy cat
As I am stroking her,
She looks up from her slumbering
To purr.

Author notes

I hope the syllable count's right

    This is for me, a very simple but touching poem, pozo. My cats used to look up at me the same way, then just lie there and enjoy my petting and doze off to another cat nap

    This is a nice Cinquain, well written and a beautiful moment shared

    Good luck in the contest

    Love and
    Mom

    Well, I have no idea what the syllable count is-sometimes the astericked words are not permited through the filter or not.(which I do have on) But the word "bunny" makes the syllable count correct. LOL So you have created a 2, 4, 6, 8, 2 cinquain.

      LOL Over zealous censor. Let's just say it Does have a rude meaning but I just mean it in the sense of cat which is a completely conventional and not rude way of using it
